I really liked the way Jurgens undercut Peraxxus, we were all thinking he was some kind of Galactus or Darkseid-esque super-mastermind space a bad-ass, but really, he’s just a Scrap Merchant, an Intergalactic Steptoe! It was a cool reveal, it makes the character more interesting, but doesn’t lessen the threat to the Earth. I continue to like the team dynamics in this book, although I wish that Godiva would get a little more to do than make suggestive comments about Batman and Booster Gold’s genitals. She’s representing the UK! We’re about more than cheap innuendos! Wait, what? Scratch that, the UK is all about cheap innuendos! It is refreshing to see a female character be the more flirtatious one in a team for once, normally the ‘horndog’ is a dumb guy like Hawkeye or Johnny Storm or Ultimate Iceman. Lopresti’s art continues to be very strong, I love those little rock dudes, so funny lookin’.
